Cape Bon

Cape Bon ("Good Cape"), also known as Res et-Teib (Arabic: الرأس الطيب),[1] Shrīk Peninsula, or Watan el Kibli,[2] is a peninsula in far northeastern Tunisia.

[5] The peninsula's northern shore forms the southern end of the Gulf of Tunis, while its southern shore is on the Gulf of Hammamet.

Settlements on the peninsula include Nabeul, Hammam el ghezaz, El Haouaria, Kelibia, Menzel Temime, Korba, and Beni Khalled.

Rivers include the Melah and Chiba wadis.

Djebel Mlezza ("Mount Mlessa") has tombs from the time of Agathocles,[6] which were excavated just before the First World War.
